Still no word for us either Justin. We hope there is a midnight showing, but not putting any money on it. I am curious though, if it will be as big of a draw as the Star Wars movies, since it is a "Star Wars" movie...lol.
We are so dedicated to going that this is how nuts we are: The husband has surgery in the morning at 7:30 a.m. The surgery lasts 2 hours...so chances are we will not even get home until 1. We will come home and I will cook dinner and send the rugrats of to Grandma's House. Then we will be going to the midnight show, if one exists. Pain is of no issue, I am sure they will give him some "happy" pills. We both agree that no surgery will slow us down, we are CRAZY...lol.
Once you have kids and no life, these small things mean the world to ya. So, this small thing is our happiness, so damn the pain...lol.
ANYONE WITH ME???
Hugs,
Connie

I admire your dedication! Heck, it's what I'd do. I went to a John Williams concert a couple days after my gallbladder surgery -- still had the shunt in me and everything LOL (I know, I know TMI). But it was John Williams -- and the place (Hollywood Bowl) was filled with lightsabers! I knew I had to go.

While I'd love to attend it, I doubt there will be a midnight showing for FanBoys. Movies that have that "cult" status applied to them (Clerks, Mall Rats, etc) only appeal to a select group of people (myself included). So I don't think there will be a midnight showing, as FanBoys cannot be considered a big ticket film worthy of such early exposure (but I surely hope I am wrong in this assessment).
As for C5, we can all probably assume that it will indeed be held in LA again, which really doesn't bother me all that much. I just hope fans who could not attend CIV due to the cost associated with the trip will start saving early (preferably now) for C5 so they can make it in 2009 if it is held then. Start your C5 fund now, and its amazing how small amounts saved each month over a long period of time quickly add up. My wife and I basically started our C5 fund the week we returned back from CIV.
Maintain that saving discipline for the next 12-18 months, and you'll easily have a nice nest egg to apply towards the trip. Every little bit counts.

Hi Everyone...
Countdown to Fanboys...4 more days. Still have not heard anything about a midnight showing, I should know something by tonight. I will be logging in while at Grad School tonight to see if they plan a night showing here in my area. I wonder if any 501st will show up in costume. I mean I know it is not a typical Star Wars movie, but would be nice to see some Stormtroopers walking around...lol. I miss not having the excitement of a new Celebrations. I sure hope an annoucement is made very soon, I so wanna get the planning started.
I hope everyone is great. Talk to ya soon!!!
Hugs,
Connie

Don't think they're doing anything around here, either (Midnight showing).
We're all celebrating our Chargers victory. That's the main topic of conversation in these parts  .
Anybody get a copy of Steve S.'s new book for Christmas? Several pictures from Celebration(s), and other pictures of friends of mine -- some in costume, though, but they're in there.

What new book are you referring to, Helen? I didn't know Steve Sansweet released another book after The Star Wars Vault.

Yeah, that's the one I mean. Pictures of people I know in the Celebration photos and in the line up photos. Also friends in the Rose Bowl pictures.

OK, gotcha.
The Vault is a must-have for any and all SW fans. It simply cannot be missed.

Hi Everyone...
Well, got home from my surgery today, Shane still has his on friday. I was doing pretty good until I logged onto theforce.net only to find that Fanboys has been, yet again, pushed back. <sniff> <sniff>
I was so excited and hyped, as most of you know...and now it looks like I will not get that date night out with the husband on friday. <sniff> <sniff> Oh well, now that Fanboys has been pushed back a very nice C5 announcement would be awesome....<hint> <hint>
I will go back to my salking now.....
Hugs,
Connie

Yeah I was pretty bummed out about the FanBoys release delay as well. We had our hearts set on seeing it this weekend, especially since Dianna's (my wife) birthday is January 19th. Would have been cool to celebrate her birthday with a SW-theme movie event.
Oh well - at least we still have Cloverfield to go see this weekend.
And I second Helen's "Get Well" wishes to you, Connie.

Hi Everyone! I fell off the face of the planet for awhile (work, school, play - no really, a real community theater play that I act in...) but I am back and hope to start posting on SW related boards again soon.
